Hello everyone I need some help choosing which pc build I should go with. I only plan on Livestreaming via TwitchTV playing PC games. I'm not sure which one to go with.
First build AMD:

Second build INTEL:

I am honestly leaning towards the AMD build because people are saying that the FX-8350/9590 are better for streaming and gaming cause of the 8-cores and starting out at 4.7 GHZ. Let me know please don't favor INTEL OR AMD when answering.
Well, the 9590 runs balls hot. When comparing the FX-8350 to the Intel i5-4670k, the FX-8350 wins in streaming. However, the i7-4770k can handle streaming relatively well. I would personally go for the i7 build, as the FX-9590 is a very highly binned, highly overclocked FX-8350. The i7-4770k will run a lot cooler and will actually allow for some overclocking. Keep in mind that the clock speed of an AMD chip is not a good method of comparison with an Intel chip, since they use different architectures.
And man, I wish I could have a PC like that :P.
tl;dr
Intel
Hows a build like this http://pcpartpicker.com/user/iccorrupt/saved/4g3S or should I go for the i7 build?
To my knowledge, the FX-line of chips higher than the FX-8350 are higher binned, overclocked FX-8350s. Some may have more or less cache, but otherwise there's not a whole lot different.
With a budget like yours, I would go with an i7.
8320 and all above are the same chip. All those should have the same amount of cache.
since you have such a big budget, you could get like 80+ gold or platinum rated power supply. You would get more efficient operation and possible quieter and reliaber operation but thats just my 2 cents :)

I wont recommend the CX PSUs as they have cheap components in them.
Cheaper and better board.
How's this Mobo for my build? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130693 and I have to keep that psu cause i already have it its in my current pc I'm going to use that.
I would still recommend the UD4H, as it is a true champion in its price-legion.
If you already have that PSU, I wont recommend spending money on a new.
Yeah I'm not just gonna use that PSU. And I plan on O.C to 4.5 or hyperthrrading I need a very good mobo/ do you still think thats the best one for around $150-170
I would also throw in avermedia live gamer so you can get the best performance in games as you have a card doing encoding on its own, it will leave more room for your games on the cpu and gpu. http://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-Recorder--C985-Capture-Stream/dp/B007UXJ6LE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1396821918&sr=8-2&keywords=Avermedia
